The Quince


Meet Quince, she is a GORGEOUS 1970s cotton bohemian prairie dream! Quince is a suspected Travers Tempos dress (I have had the same one) but is missing her labels. This has been dramatically reflected in her pricing. She has a really unique silhouette with square neckline and fitted bust panel, and an overlay floaty top with huge sleeves. She has a beaut delicate ditsy floral in browns and pinks.  It's actually so hard to describe the beauty of Quince! She is just so unusual. 

This girl measures to approx UK size 10/12 she is very hard to measure due to her cut.

Bust - up to 36" approx

Under Bust - 32"

Length -  55"

 For reference our mannequin, Norma, measures to a UK 6. 

The Quince has been freshly laundered and is ready to wear. She can safely be washed at home on a cool setting. She is in good vintage condition, she has a few minor signs of wear.

This beauty has minimal signs of vintage wear, but please bear in mind that our pieces are true vintage, they’ve been danced in and they have been lived in, so all of our garments will carry your usual signs of vintage wear. Anything that we think is outside of what would class as usual vintage wear, we will state.

Here at Pansy we know vintage sizes are very different from modern sizes, and we pride ourselves on offering accurate measurements with approximate modern UK sizing to ensure a your Pansy purchases will be a good fit.
Although we do offer approx modern sizing it is also very helpful if you know your own measurements. If you are unsure of these, an easy way of estimating them is measuring one of your own garments, that fits well, laid flat. Measure in inches, across from pit to pit, flat across the waist and double both of these measurements.  Our length measurements are mostly taken from the highest point of the shoulder to the hem.
